Kate Middleton and Prince William preparing for 'emotional time' that will change the dynamic of their 'tight family unit'

Princess Charlotte, Catherine, Princess of Wales, Prince George, Prince Louis and Prince William attend the 2026 Easter Matins Service at St George's Chapel on April 05, 2026.

Late last year the Prince and Princess of Wales said goodbye to Adelaide Cottage and moved into Forest Lodge, closing one chapter and beginning another after an intensely difficult time. Settling into a new home is always a big change and yet there's another one looming that will arguably affect the family's dynamic a lot more.

Prince William and Kate's children went back to Lambrook School for the summer term on 22nd April, but only two will be returning in the autumn. Prince George turns 13 in July and he'll move to a new school in September, most likely as a boarder.
